Ceramic vessel 11023. Burial mound 11. Cemetery of Tutugi

Ceramic vessel 11023 (dish or cup) of the burial mound 11 of the Iberian cemetery of Tutugi (Galera, Granada, Spain). First occupation phase of the burial mound. Oxidazing athmosphere. Inner and outter circular red decoration. It was likely the top of a funerary urn. The red color was manufactured using hematite (Fe2O3). The high concentration of Fe (an average of 15.81% by weight, three replicates using EDXRF) allows to propose an extra addition of hematite to obtain the red color.

Micro-Raman Spectroscopy (MRS)

Renishaw ‘in via’ Reflex Spectrometer coupled with a confocal Leica DM LM microscope (CICT, University of Jaén), equipped with a diode laser (785 nm, 300 mW), and a Peltier-cooled CCD detector, calibrated to the 520.5 cm-1 line of silicon.

X-Ray Fluorescence

Elemental analysis of red decoration.

Non destructive. Surface cleaning. Sample pretreatment is not required. Direct measurement.

Energy dispersive X- ray fluorescence (EDXRF)

EDAX (model Eagle III) fluorescence spectrometer (CITI, University of Seville). This spectrometer is equipped with a microfocus X-ray tube with an Rh anode, a polycapillary lens for X-ray focussing, and an 80 mm2 energy dispersive Si-(Li) detector. The sample chamber incorporates an XYZ motorized stage for sample positioning. A high resolution microscope is used to position the sample on the desired distance from the polycapillary. To increase the sensitivity of the low Z elements, the sample chamber can be brought under vacuum. For the analysis of the samples, a spot size of 300 µm was chosen at an operating X-ray tube voltage of 40 kV. The tube current was adapted for each sample in order to optimise the detection of X-rays.
